Radiotherapy technology recently employed at a cancer center in Glasgow has the ability to generate individualized radiotherapy treatment plans for as many as 50 patients at a time within minutes, circumventing a process that typically takes physicians more than a day per patient plan, the Herald reported early this week.

GE Healthcare named Tom McGuinness its new president and CEO of GE Healthcare's Imaging business on June 11, according to an internal report from GE Healthcare.

The vast majority of physicians (94 percent) and hospital leaders (90 percent) believe mobile technology improves patient safety and outcomes, according to a survey conducted by Black Book.

Researchers have developed an algorithm capable of predicting low blood pressure that could occur during surgery with 84 percent accuracy. Findings were published June 11 in Anesthesiology.

Smokers and diabetics might be at a heightened risk for developing hippocampal calcifications—abnormal buildups triggered by vascular disease—according to a Radiology study published this week.

A noninvasive imaging technique combined with fractional flow reserve (FFR) showed the potential to detect functionally significant lesions in patients with multivessel coronary artery disease (CAD), according to a study published June 11 in the Journal of the American College of Cardiology.

Fewer Americans are receiving radiotherapy during their first course of cancer treatment than a decade ago, a trio of researchers reported in the Journal of the American College of Radiology this month—and more are turning to systemic therapy as an alternative.

Partial breast irradiation, though an attractive alternative to whole-breast radiotherapy, is prone to movement changes of around 4 millimeters during imaging, according to research out of the Netherlands Cancer Institute in Amsterdam. That finding suggests physicians might want to take extra steps to ensure image quality and avoid unnecessary radiation.
